Longan and Sour-Jujube-Seed Tea

Why people make this tea

Nourilo often hears from older folks who simply cannot get a good night’s rest. In the traditional view, when the heart’s nourishment runs thin or a little internal heat keeps stirring the mind, sleep turns light and broken, the heart flutters, and memory slips. This simple tea brings together longan, sour jujube seed and foxnut — ingredients long used to quiet the spirit and settle a busy mind before bed.
